Re: A Tale of a Lone Admiral-Let's Play BattleFleet Gothic!

G'Day all, and welcome back to another UPDATE of "A Tale of a Lone Admiral"! Over the past few days I've been rather lazy, and I've only painted another 2 cruisers, for a total of 5 cruisers painted. However, I got up this morning and said "Right, enough of this buggering about, let's make like /tg/...

Hi everybody! I NEED YOUR HELP! Well, I painted another cruiser this morning before I go to work in a bit, and I'm a bit baffled. Of the three cruisers I've painted, they all use the same base but have differently painted Prows/details. And I like all three! So help me choose! http://i1120.photobuck...

Hmm, I seem to have de-railed this thread quite nicely now, haven't I? I shall put away my Australian Military History for now, and address the OP.
